IMPROVEMENT IN IMPLEMENTS FOR OPENING FRUIT-CANS.
Speciiioation forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,108, datedNovember 19, 18.72.
To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, ALEXANDER McCLAN- AHAN, of Bath, in the county of Mason and in the State of Illinois, have invented an Implement for Opening Wax-Sealed Fruit Jars or Gans; and do hereby declare that the follow- 4ing is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the annexed drawing making a part of this specification, in which like letters of reference refer to like parts, and in which- Figure l represents a front elevation; Fig. 2, side elevation or view; and Fig. 3, illustration of the use of the implement.
This invention consists of a small paddle or board having a convenient handle at one end, which terminates in a small brush.
The cover of a fruit can or jar is readily loosened from the imbedding wax by striking it a smart, quick blow with the flat part of the board. The wax-dust is removed before removing the cover by means of the brush at the would not accomplish the desired object-. e., loosening the cover by breaking the brittle wax. A brush, b, terminates the handle-end, and a ring, c, may be inserted in the larger end by which to hang the implement up in a .convenient place ready for use.
The operation of this invention is as follows: Wax-sealed fruit cans or jars are opened by striking the iiat part ofthe cover of the same a smart, quick blow with the broad flat end of this board or implement. This breaks the wax around the edges of the cover, so that the latter is easily taken 0H without further trouble, first removing the loose particles of the wax with a duster-brush or the brush set on the handle. surface ofthe cover of the jar loosens the cover all round.
What I claim as my invention is- As a new article of manufacture, the paddle for opening fruit-cans, when composed of the paddle A and brush b, substantially as described. v In testimony that I claim the foregoing implement for opening wax-sealed fruit cans or jars I have hereunto set my hand this 15th day of April, A. D. 1871.
